"Castle That Burns" lyrics
Iris Official Lyrics
The castle that burns
You wanted change so badly
But didn't think to know the cost
When everyone seeks remedy
You have nobody to blame
For the lives that lost the will
To move, to think they'd be too afraid to blink
Asking all to comply
Makes you no better as they die
You don't know what pain is
When the pain is theirs to remain
We'll burn every brick you've cradled
Smite down your demented label
We'll make sure you're nothing but fable
The weight of the world cast down by your hand
Look what you've done, the blood is all on you
(Now kneel before me)
The foundation crumbles before thee
From the ingress of glory
So bow, reap what you earned
From this castle that burns
For every day you seek to thwart the throne
You'll reap what you sow
Was all this worth it?
Was kneeling down your arms pointless and worthless?
Cradle what you've gone and burned in time
Wake up, your castle walls are coming down
To your severed and devastated ground
(You should've turned around)
Break down, your hero died to the embers' plight
Nothing more in sight, for your will and might
We've taken what you cradled
To make sure you're nothing but fable
The weight of the world cast down by your hand
Look what you've done, the blood is all on you
(Now kneel before me)
The foundation crumbles before thee
From the ingress of glory
So bow, reap what you earned
From this castle that burns
What were once kings, became slaves to hell
And that hell comes with no mercy
Now look what you've done
It looks like we won
The weight of the world cast down by your hand
Look what you've done, the blood is all on you
(Now kneel before me)
The foundation crumbles before thee
From the ingress of glory
So bow, reap what you earned
From this castle that burns
The fire inside waves like tides
You are to blame for your crime (You are to blame for your crime)
May hell give you grace, just in case thy vengeful God decides
Your castle dies!
And in the wickedness of this warp
Remains the devil's darkest hand
You wanted change so badly
But didn't think to know the cost
When everyone seeks remedy
You have nobody to blame
For the lives that lost the will
To move, to think they'd be too afraid to blink
Asking all to comply
Makes you no better as they die
You don't know what pain is
When the pain is theirs to remain
We'll burn every brick you've cradled
Smite down your demented label
We'll make sure you're nothing but fable
The weight of the world cast down by your hand
Look what you've done, the blood is all on you
(Now kneel before me)
The foundation crumbles before thee
From the ingress of glory
So bow, reap what you earned
From this castle that burns
For every day you seek to thwart the throne
You'll reap what you sow
Was all this worth it?
Was kneeling down your arms pointless and worthless?
Cradle what you've gone and burned in time
Wake up, your castle walls are coming down
To your severed and devastated ground
(You should've turned around)
Break down, your hero died to the embers' plight
Nothing more in sight, for your will and might
We've taken what you cradled
To make sure you're nothing but fable
The weight of the world cast down by your hand
Look what you've done, the blood is all on you
(Now kneel before me)
The foundation crumbles before thee
From the ingress of glory
So bow, reap what you earned
From this castle that burns
What were once kings, became slaves to hell
And that hell comes with no mercy
Now look what you've done
It looks like we won
The weight of the world cast down by your hand
Look what you've done, the blood is all on you
(Now kneel before me)
The foundation crumbles before thee
From the ingress of glory
So bow, reap what you earned
From this castle that burns
The fire inside waves like tides
You are to blame for your crime (You are to blame for your crime)
May hell give you grace, just in case thy vengeful God decides
Your castle dies!
And in the wickedness of this warp
Remains the devil's darkest hand
